Aiming at stricter enforcement of
NRA codes, James G. Bretherton,
executive assistant to Edgar Freed
state NRA compliance director, and
C. C. Carlson, field adjuster, were in
Medford on Thursday, as part of a
statewide survey of NRA conditions,
it was learned today.
Bretherton and Carlson conferred
with civic leadera and members of
local retail code authorities during
their stay here. Conferences were
arranged with members of the original
volunteer NRA commltttss who were
active in the first organisation ol
the NRA.
Facts ascertained in the survey will
be the basis of a report for use in
setting up a compliance adjustment
system to make possible speedier and
more effective investigation of all al
leged instances of cede violation. Ten
tative plans call for regular visits here
by field adjusters traveling out ot
Portland headquarters of the state
ocmpllance office. These adjusters
will receive complaints and will in
vestigate all reported vlclations.
It was also indicated that Brether
ton is laying the foundation for a
county-wide clean-up" of code vio
lators In this area. Plans for such
a drive to secure one hundred per
cent compliance were discussed at the
Informal conferences while the NRA
officials were In town.
The federal officers were not per
mitted to remain long enough on this
trip to Investigate pending local com
plaints, it was announced. Only the
most cases requiring Immediate at
tention were Investigated. Carlson
handled those local complaints of long
standing which require summary In
vestigation. However, this trip was
devoted largely to a survey of condi
tions, while the actual compliance
work will be undertaken in subse
quent visits of field adjusters.
Carlson and Bretherton left for
Grants Pass to complete their survey.

ON SPOT BY PEAVY
CORVALL1S. Ore., Oct. 5. (UP)
National honoroary fraternities were
"put on the spot" last night by Pres
ident George W. Peuvy of Oregon
State college following a keynote
speech to students in which he de
clared the organizations must "Justify
their existence.
We are not convinced that the
honorarles are beneficial," Peavy told
the assembly. "Oregon State college
men and women cannot afford to
spend money for hardware which is
only used for decorntion."
Peavy, member of two major nat
ional honorarles, said thousands of
dollars were taken from the campus
each year to support national offices
of the societies "and particularly for
support of high salaried secretaries."

J. H. Hunt, local representative ot

ceived word frcm the organization's
headquarters that the agreement has

Is only effective during the winter.
and the agreement will be adopted
again next spring. Hunt said.
At a meeting of growers at the
Hotel Holland last evening, Mr. Hunt
lead a discussion of the possibilities
of putting Oregon under the market
ing agreement for apples. He also
urged local apple growers to repre
sent this district at a meeting next
Monday evening at Portland of grow
ers throughout the state.
Mr. .Hunt voiced the opinion that
if Oregon did not come under the
agreement, this state will become the
dumping ground for Washington ap

NEW YORK (UP) Plants, too. are
subject to & tanning similar to our
sunburn, when they are Irradiated
with ultra-violet rays. Dr. Florence
E. Meier of Smithsonian Institution's
Division of Radiation and Organisms
points out that the leaf cells of dif
ferent plants undergo a change In
color to brown, following a latent
period, after they have been irra
diated with the ravs.
Mlsa Meier, who has been conduc
ing experiments with the rays, which
are beyond the spectrum range of vis
ible light, ha discovered some pecu
liar variations In the effects pro
duced when the rays differed by
merely a few ten-mlllionths of a milli
meter. The experiments were carried
on using wave lengths of ultra-violet
radiation ranging from 3022 to 25U6
Angstroms; one Angstrom, the unit
which Is used to measure these wave
lengths, is a ten-milllonth of a milli
meter. ,
Her experiments divulged that not
only do these ultra-violet rays have
lethal effects upon such minute or
ganisms as the one-celled plant called
algae, but, in addition, she found that
the rays differ among themselves In
their toxic effects. Identical amounts
of some killed more rapidly than
others, and smaller amounts of oth
ers were required to cause death.
Dr. Meier has grouped the responses
she obtained In two categories
radiotoxlc spectral sensitivity and ra
diotoxic virulence. To clarify this, we
may consider the relotlve effects of
radium paint on a watch-face, cyan
ide of potassium, and rattlesnake
venom upon a human being. Regard
ing sensitivity, each Individual poi
son Is capable of causing death, If
administered In a sufficient dose.
Probably, in order of minimum dos
age, says Miss Meier, they would rank:
radium, cyanide, snake venom. In or
der of toxic virulence, or, in othtv
words, time necessary for effect to
occur, they would rank: cyanide, snake
venom, radium.

LONDON (UP) Nearly & billion
Britishers paid admission to moving
picture theaters In Great Britain ust
year.
The gross amount derived was
201.000.000. The customers sveraged
about 18.500.000 a week.
Of the gross amount United States
producers received from the exhibi
tion of American films on this side
$28,500,000, according to figures pre
sented to the meeting of the Brltlsn
Association Economics Section at its
recent meeting In Aberdeen.
To determine the total of remit
tances abroad for films. S. Rows&n,
president of the British Klnemato
graph Society, based his calculations
upon the amount of entertainment
tax collected by the excise depart
ment. The government's exchequer
actually drew 30,000,000 from film
exhibitions.
Rowson estimates that tin propor
tion of the receipts paid to the dis
tributor varies in special cases with
in wide limits. It depends largely, he
states, upon the bargaining skill of
the exhibitor's buying representative
and of the renter's salesman.
"In no other Industry in the
world," he suggests, "not even in the
bazaars of the East, is the art of bar
gaining exercised with as great skill
as in the selling of films."
Following a close check on several
hundred theaters throughout the
country, Rowson discovered that after
the deduction of tax, the proportion,
paid for films was 33 7 per cent. Tha
average price paid for a scat was
about 20 cents.
